Art is not mine!! 🚫
A once delicate heart, as calm as the ocean now sit, still in the chest of the stone faced male. As he lay unconscious on the hard wood floors of his estate, Blood seeping from his wound. Slowly loosing his sense of reality, he...
Chapter 010 Recap; Giyuu was horrified at the question, lying to avoid suspicion. Shinobu knew he was lying. The other hashiras share a awkward moment of silence as he ate. Giyuu gets up saying something to Sanemi, or trying to. He starts coughing in the middle of the sentence. Arising worry in the others. Shinobu checks him and says he fine, although she can't believe herself. They leave the room once they think Giyuu falls asleep, although he doesn't. He thinks if all the pain and or panic he's inflicted upon the others. Grabbing a syringe from the cart Shinobu never took. Self harming once more.

Giyuu quickly fell asleep, although it being 2 in the afternoon(14:00). The chatter of the rest of Hashira being quickly drowned out by the ravenette's dreamless sleep.
The other hashiras noticed, taking this chance to discuss when they could confront him about it.
"I don't think we should ask him about it just quite yet! Did you see how he reacted to Mitsuri's question!? How unflashy!" Is the first sentence that came out of Tengen's big mouth.
If looks could kill Sanemi and Shinobu would be considered murders. Shinobu let her piercing gaze drift off onto Mitsuri who seemed distressed. "Kanroji-chan? Are you okay?" the purple haired female asked in a soft tone.
Mitsuri covered her face with her hands, she seemed upset as she shook her head no. Shinobu glared at the others to get them to stop bickering so she could talk to Mitsuri.
"I didn't mean to frighten Tomioka-san!!" she says her pitch higher than usual.. which Sanemi thought was impossible. Shinobu walked over to the nervous pinkette, placing a hand on her shoulder despite being shorter than her.
"Its okay Kanroji-san, I'm sure he was just surprised. He wasn't scared of you, okay? I'm sure even Tomioka would agree." She responded reassuringly, squeezing her should slightly as a way to tell her 'it's okay.'
Mitsuri hugged the shorter female, her arms wrapped around her tightly. After the shock of being hugged she hugged back just as quick. A smile on her face and she did. The pinkette soon pulled away, her tears gone from view.
Shinobu then began to retrace her steps, ending up the same spot she was in before. "Thank you Shinobu!" She said happily, clasping her hands together in appreciation.
She nodded, a way of saying 'not a problem.' then sneaking a glance at Tomioka. The man seemed in a different position than before. She knew he had to start rehabilitation training, but was worried for his over all mental health.
